BY ROB SHAW LEAD EXPERT, FANTASYFANATICS.COM ROYALS Jose Guillen is the power bat brought in this off-season to solve the Royals greatest flaw. A slow start by Guillen hurt the Royals, as the team has tumbled 15 games under .500. The good news is that Guillen has swung a hot bat lately. The Royals 32-year old outfielder has 4 homeruns in the last 7 games. That includes 11 RBI and 12 hits that...

BRAVES Braves hurler Tim Hudson allowed 3 earned runs in a loss to the Reds, then left the game early after 6 innings with a strained hamstring. This is not a good loss for the Braves, who already have their ace John Smoltz headed to the bullpen due to arm troubles. The Braves also have had Tom Glavine and Mike Hampton on the DL this season. Hudson has been a fantasy sensation up to this point...

ROYALS Jose Guillen is finally living up to his contract, producing like the slugger the Royals desperately need. The free agent acquisition has a ten game hitting streak with 2 homeruns, 15 RBI, and an incredible .500 average during that span. With last year's 23 homeruns, 99 RBI, and .290 average in mind, Guillen should be a solid buy-low candidate. MARLINS Dan Uggla may be the hottest hitter...

A VIEW OF THE DIAMOND BY ROB SHAW FANTASYFANATICS.COM ROYALS When the Royals were en vogue, no one discussed closer Joakim Soria that much, but 13 appearances into the season, he has yet to allow a run in 13 innings, while walking just one batter, and allowing three hits. Soria, who has 15 strikeouts is just 23 years old, and while Mike McDougal, Ambiorix Burgos, and other former Royals closers...

A VIEW OF THE DIAMOND BY ROB SHAW FANTASYFANATICS.COM YANKEES It may be hard to argue that a New York Yankee is flying under the radar, but I am not sure that people understand how good Chien-Ming Wang actually is. The Yankees ace has won 51 of his first 69 career decisions. Thanks to pin-point control and an uncanny ability to escape jams, his career ERA is just 3.75. Just 27 years old,...

In the last 7 games, he has 7 runs, 2 homeruns, and 11 RBI. During that span, Cabrera has lifted his average from .175 to .279. On a side note, since their 0-7 start, the Tigers have gone 6-6.

A VIEW OF THE DIAMOND BY ROB SHAW FANTASYFANATICS.COM INDIANS The Tribe has to be happy with what they've seen out of starter Cliff Lee. After grabbing a win at Oakland in his season debut without allowing an earned run, the 29-year old southpaw took care of them at Jacobs field for his second victory. Lee did not surrender a walk, allowed just 2 hits, and just one run in 8 innings of stellar...

A VIEW OF THE DIAMOND, 4-8-08 Diamondbacks centerfielder Chris Young has signed a 6-year extension. The 24-year old is fresh off a sensational rookie season that included 32 homeruns and 29 RBIs. He did bat just .237, and struck out on 141 occasions, but there was enough potential shown for the Diamondbacks to keep their phenom atop the batting order. After signing the extension, Young blasted...

Blessed with all the talent in the world, Elijah Dukes has not made good on the promise of his talent. It appears that once again, the outfielder will miss some time and an opportunity, but this time it is not a result of a team-levied suspension. A tight right hamstring has Dukes on the 15-Day DL, after an 0-2 performance in the Nationals season opener. Dukes hammered 10 homeruns in just 52 games...

If you're looking for a sleeper pick at shortstop, Yunel Escobar is a player going under the radar. Despite playing in just 94 games last season, the Braves saw enough from the 25 year old to send Edgar Renteria to Detroit, while handing over the shortstop gig to Escobar. On Friday, Escobar clubbed a grand slam against the Phillies. Last season, the 6'2 shortstop played shortstop, second base,...

The Houston Astros are breaking in a new leadoff hitter, and on Tuesday, Michael Bourn showed some power. The former Phillies speedster was involved in the Brad Lidge trade, and expected to make a home at the top of the Astros lineup. Against Reds ace Aaron Harang, Bourn blasted a homerun, and finished the day 2-4. The homerun was his first of the spring, but more importantly, he stole his 5th base....

Before we all ignore Ivan Rodriguez in our fantasy drafts, perhaps it's time we give him a chance to redeem himself for a poor 2007. Batting leadoff for a stacked Tigers lineup on Monday, the 36-year old backstop hit his third homerun of the spring. Once the best fantasy catcher in the American League, Rodriguez has hit a dry spell in recent seasons as his power has all, but evaporated, while...

The Yankees gain confidence in their young starters as Philip Hughes earns his second win with 4 no-hit innings. The expectations will be high for Hughes as the Yankees could have acquired two-time CY Young winner Johan Santana merely by placing Hughes in the offer. In 13 starts, Hughes was inconsistent in his rookie season. He went 5-3 with a 4.46 ERA and respectable 1.28 ERA. While his 29...

The Orioles may have lost a meaningless spring training game by a run, but they have to be pleased with what they see out of rookie Mike Costanzo. The 24-year old first baseman has offered plenty of power in the Minor Leagues. Including 27 round trippers last season for the Phillies AA affiliate. He also drew 75 walks in 137 games, powering 86 RBIs and 92 runs. His 157 strikeouts were a bit high,...
Will Coco Be On The Other Side of the Diamond When The Sox are on the Other
2008-03-06 23:54:00
According to Buster Olney of ESPN.com the Red Sox are still discussing a trade with the Oakland A's involving Coco Crisp. Billy Beane likes to get players cheap and Coco's $4 million salary for a has to be enticing. It would make for an interesting storyline if Coco were on the opposing team when the Sox open up in Japan on the 25th. The Red Sox still need the a catcher for the future, and you can never have too much pitching. Coco was out again today to go to the dentist (along with resting his groin) but it seems he could have an appointment after the game or could have been given at least 1 AB. Is this a sign of an imminent deal? Tito has to make some roster moves soon so do the Sox carry Kielty, Ellsbury, and Coco? Look for a move soon, unless Jacoby continues to struggle at the plate.Fenway West- The Western Home to Red Sox Nation

Last season, Patterson stile 37 bases and scored 65 runs for the Orioles. However, his homerun total was cut in half from the previous season (16 to 8). While he...

De Beers & the Diamond Industry
2007-12-03 09:06:00
For nearly a century, De Beers has dictated the price of diamonds all over the world. To maintain its monopoly, the South African company supported the Apartheid government and traded lucratively with the Soviet Union. Some also allege that De Beers mistreats its miners and evicts natives from their land. Despite having created an artificially bloated diamond market, some, including Nelson Mandela, come to De Beers' defense. Advocates of the controversial company contend that the industry leader has created jobs and brought significant wealth to parts of the world that would otherwise be impoverished.

I wonder what the movie will be about...I assume it has something to do with Toshiro Hitsugaya "rebelling" against Soul Society, and it's up to Ichigo to stop him from whatever he is plotting. I hope so...we need to see more of Toshiro and less of Ichigo. Actually, every character in the series, especially one of my favorite characters, Byakuya Kuchiki. It will be a year before we can see a decent quality version of the movie--or, prehaps, finding a free plane ticket to Japan!

The Diamonds - Little Darlin' (1957)
2007-07-29 09:00:00
One of the leading cover groups of the mid-'50s, the Diamonds adapted current R&B hits into pop gold of their own. Hailing from Toronto, the Canadian quartet (consisting of Ted Kowalski, Phil Leavitt, Bill Reed, and Dave Somerville) signed with Mercury in 1955 and immediately zoomed up pop play lists with covers of the Teenagers' "Why Do Fools Fall in Love"; the Willows' "Church Bells May Ring"; and their biggest hit of all, a sanitized version of the Gladiolas hit "Little Darlin'." Fronted by David Somerville, the quartet hit with an original, the smooth dance outing "The Stroll." After weathering major personnel changes, the Diamonds notched their last hit in 1961. Somerville remained active as a solo artist for a time, and the Diamonds often toured the oldies scene.(Read more) [Bio & Info © allmusic.com]» Listen! » Download mp3 eMusic's FREE Daily Download!
